MAA Implementation & Upgrade Methodology (MAAIM)

The Mitchell & Assocaites Implementation Methodology (MAAIM) has been developed to plan, manage, and deliver J.D. Edwards software solutions. It is based upon J.D. Edwards own standard OneMethodology implementation approach, but has evolved over the past 20 years to cope with the different situations that have been encountered during our numerous implementations. Our unique MAAIM process accelerates time-to-benefit for our clients as well as reduces their risk and exposure.

The MAAIM process addresses the areas of highest risk early in the implementation lifecycle. Our professionals begin by evaluating and analyzing your business processes and existing infrastructure to determine the most suitable solution architecture and design. They then develop, rigorously test and implement the resulting solution.

The strength of the Mitchell & Associates Implementation Methodology lies in its balance between flexibility and speed. The MAAIM process is flexible in that it allows our implementation professionals to refine requirements as the project evolves. Each of our clients has unique business requirements and we provide them with a solution tailored to their exact needs.

The MAAIM process is also fast. We leverage established implementation practices and templates to streamline activities - shrinking implementation times and reducing costs. Our unmatched experience with numerous companies allows the MAAIM process to be quickly adapted to the needs of our clients, no matter their size or industry. We utilize industry best practices to eliminate the root causes of implementation failure. Most importantly, it allows your organization to realize a faster ROI (Return on Investment).

What’s Important:
Improve productivity
Lower costs
Meet user expectations
Maintain system flexibility
Maintain schedule & budget
Assimilate J.D. Edwards technology
Improve on legacy systems
Provide a return on your investment

JD Edwards Training Services

Mitchell & Associates education covers the entire scope of J.D. Edwards software and can be delivered anywhere in the world. Clients often use our training services to augment or supplement training already provided by J.D. Edwards. Clients often advise us that they are overwhelmed with all of the information obtained in a standard JD Edwards training class. We understand there concern because JD Edwards is trying to impart a wealth of information and technology to its clients. Often it is too much information for a person to digest at one time and the topics need to be reviewed incrementally.

Although we offer full training classes most clients use our service in a one on one augmentation basis, but we also perform this same service on a group basis. The value in our classes comes in form of the instructor’s experience. They cover a wide range of business settings and the practical application of sophisticated technology. Working one on one at the client site while using examples directly related to their business, we have a history of playing a vital role in making business solutions work.

We think in terms of how this benefits our clients. We believe on-site consulting and training are the best techniques to use in an adult learning environment. Training should add value to your ongoing business without disrupting business as usual. We offer you the flexibility you need in choosing a training schedule. We'll work with you to arrange courses at your site with an emphasis tailored to your unique issues. By the end of the training, team members and users can gain the first-hand experience they need to become effective users in their own work settings. Our consultants combine years of industry experience with rigorous training to offer clients comprehensive J.D. Edwards product knowledge.

Paying the high rates for experienced help from Oracle or one of their partners, limits the amount of assistance that can be purchased to support the upgrade. The key to reducing the level of risk present with the upgrade project is your ability to acquire the most experienced consulting team at the best rates.
